Lansdale Police are investigating a targeted shooting that occurred in Lansdale’s quiet West Ward neighborhood in the early Tuesday morning hours.

Police responded at 12:33 a.m. to the 300 block of West Mt. Vernon Street for a report of shots fired.

The initial investigation determined the incident was a targeted act, police said, with suspects firing multiple rounds at a moving vehicle on the same block.

The car was hit by gunfire, as were three parked vehicles in the area, police said.

There were no reported injuries.

This incident remains under investigation. Police are asking anyone in the area with surveillance cameras, including residential, business, or doorbell cameras (such as Ring), to review their footage from the time of the incident.

Anyone with information or video related to this matter is asked to contact the Lansdale Borough Police Department at 215-368-1801.

In an additional incident, numerous residents in the area of Green Street informed North Penn Now of theft from vehicles overnight, with valuables and bank cards stolen.
